The decision was reached today during a discussion with President Anura Kumara Dissanayake.
“This morning, the President visited the Ministry of Agriculture for a progress review with officials.

Once it is done, the relevant amount will be processed through a banking system,” the Secretary said.
“Hence, there is no hindrance to provide the fertiliser subsidy,” he added.
